75subie Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 i cut my cap up into a spoiler for the 78 brat.looks pretty sharp if you ask me:D here are some pics.right now it is just sitting on there, gotta bolt it down and paint it.the sawsall cut that cap like butter.if you are going to do this, make sure you cut along the line of the front of the side windows, that way it has some structural integrity.

Turbone Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 The rest of that cap might fit on someone's Bratch No, I dont have one. But theres a few that do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75subie Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 thanks for the comments guys. ahh, about that cap, it kind of got cut up by a certain sawsall already:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zefy Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 if i recall correctly, on my cap, all the mounting spots are run along the bottom of the cap... how you getting that thing to stay put? i'd hate to see that fly off on the freeway and hit some unsuspecting soccermom and her minivan...

Zefy Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 oh and hey... i think it'd look pretty slick if you had some spot lights(not big ones) going through the spoiler... have them inset into it... use a little fiberglass... i think it'd look super sick... i wanted to do this with my cap... but i pretty much never run with the cap on... so it'd be a waste of time and money to buy lights then have them sit in the backyard... although when i need the cap its always very handy... just a thought...

75subie Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 oh, just saw your reply.yea, lights would be awesome.especially if they were recessed a little.here is a pic i found with some: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/brats/bratcolors/79-white-cust.jpg as for mounting, i left a little of the lip on the bottom, it has the 2 guides on the up section, and on the top i figured out a way to use the rain channels.i will post pics, but i think it will be pretty sturdy.now i wish i had a tonneau cover too:brow: Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
